Music is perhaps unique among the performing arts in its ability to express and convey the subtlest nuances of human emotion. This ability is exploited in When the Spirit Soars, which attempts to capture in music the feeling of extreme happiness, sometimes almost too much to bear, that we all experience at one time or another. Often this happiness can be tinged with sadness (we can cry with joy, after all), and it is this conflict of emotions that this piece describes. There are moments of doubt as the piece progresses, but it ends in undiluted joy.

This frequently set text by Mary Elizabeth Frye is full of hope and life. In this new setting, the violin soars as if to represent the spirit that has left the grave. The repeating text “I'm not there, I'm not gone” over an ascending 1/16th note pattern gives your singers the sense of traveling to places yet unknown.
